Richard Sherman danced with cheerleaders after interception

Richard Sherman — the mouthy Seattle Seahawks cornerback of “u mad, bro?” fame — is proving himself to be far more likable than his reputation. From his ability to back up his trash talk, to his inspiring family story, to his beef with Jim Harbaugh, he’s a hard guy not to like, provided you’re not rooting the team he’s lining up against.

Sherman added to his growing legend on Sunday night with a monster game that was punctuated by a backbreaking interception of Colin Kaepernick. After Sherman’s pick, he ran over the sideline to celebrate with an impromptu dance party with the Seahawks cheerleaders, the Sea Gals.

Lindsay Jones of USA TODAY Sports was at the game and hit the nail on the head.

Terrell Owens famously pulled this move years back, stealing a cheerleader’s pom poms after a touchdown. Come to think of it, T.O. was a loudmouth with talent who was occasionally likable too. Hmmm. For now, we’ll chalk it up to coincidence. But if Sherman ever gets tearful in a press conference while talking about Russell Wilson, then we can raise the red flag.
